Question about CV Hi everyone, I have a question regarding my CV writing. I have finished some online courses and some trainings in class. I’m not sure where I should put them in my CV. They are not education, right?I can’t put them along with my universities. Should I create a new section named further studies or training experience? Do you have some advice for me? Thank you very much.

What's the difference among because, as, for, and since, when they are used to express reason?

Writing Essay in English Writing in English is really difficult for me, though I have learned English in school for more than 8 years. I believe I am not the only person who has this problem in China, for I have heard so many people complaining that they can not write an English essay when they were asked to. The defects of the Chinese education system could be responsible for this situation. The first English classes in elementary school and junior high school both teach English alphabet, which is such a waste, because junior high students already have some basic knowledge of the English language since they have been taught English for more than 4 years in elementary school. The lack of connection between these two levels of education makes students reluctant to follow the courses. Besides, all Chinese high school level education is in preparation for the college entrance examination, so that the goal of English learning for students is to get good grades in the exams. You can get an excellent score on the writing session of English exams, as long as you use the proper template. This fact does not only reduce the students’ enthusiasm for learning English, but also results in the situation that students cannot write a proper English essay without using templates. For college students and employees, they are not required to be able to write in English, unless they are in special industries. English writing skills are not necessarily needed for most business, so most people do not have the skill. I was not taught in school or college about how to write an essay in English, and my job does not require me to have this skill. That leads me to this awkward situation, that I am asked to provide an English essay, when I apply to a U.S. university, but I cannot write one.

What factors would you take into consideration when choosing an online teacher/tutor?

Hi, I'm new on italki, and I'd like to have some lessons with professional teachers or tutors. But I felt a little lost when I was searching for one. All of the teachers seemed really good. I couldn't make a decision.

So would you give me some advice, or talk about what factors would you take into consideration?

Thank you.
